Supplier Sites
There are so many special functions
when the average high street shop can't supply that individually
styled and more or less unique outfit.
Cruise
wear, Wedding guest, 2nd
Time married, Garden parties, Christenings, Proms, Evening wear, Honeymoons, Cocktail dresses etc.
The list is endless really.
Apart from our usually good
selection of outfits, fashions and costumes etc there are hundreds
out there that we have access to and can buy in specially for you.
The delightful outfits from the Luis Civit collection are an example
of this. We keep a specially chosen selection in the shop but can
order the other pieces as needed.
They have
several labels each designed for a particular market. Not only do
they have wonderful outfits for mother of the bride and groom but
they also do a comprehensive collection of stylish fashions
for evening wear and other events where you need to look really good
without going over the top.Fashions for special occasions
What can we say? So you have a really special occasion to attend
or you just want to impress. You
really must look a million dollars and feel great. Look no further.
Special occasion outfits are our speciality.
We have supplied several outfits for guests of Her Majesty at one of her Garden Parties and special receptions. Each one was chosen for its individuality. Imagine bumping into another guest wearing the same outfit bought from a high street department store or boutique in any situation like that.
The same goes for wedding guests seeking something really nice that also has a very good chance of being a one-off at the event.
Outfits for cruises have featured largely in our customers requests, both as relaxing and smart day wear and for the seat at the captains table or the evening ball. Of course a day at the races is made all that more special by putting on the style too especially in one of our superbly styled hats. Of course you simply cannot go to Royal Ascot without one but they are equally as fashionable at all racing events. Just for your information, Clare Balding, the BBC commentator, was wearing a gorgeous gold Paule Vasseur suit at Ladies Day at Royal Ascot. We have taken a large collection from Gloria Estelles and Luis Civit as well as our favourites from Michael H, Medici, Max Pierre, Libra etc. Of course it wouldn't be the same without a hat and we have over 200 to choose from, most of which can be hired for the day.
We love the Paule Vasseur collection (as you will see in the next paragraph) and it is one of our customers favourites. We also have an always in stock service for some of the wonderful outfits from Paule Vasseur. Click here to see them and choose your outfit.
The range of outfits from the exquisite Montage Occasions collection are just wonderful; so modern and gorgeous for all occasions They are made from absolutely gorgeous silk and are full of colour, style and imagination. Drop in here to see some of them.
We have just placed our first order for a collection of wonderful outfits from Ian Stuart. Ian is the 4 times winner of the best wedding gown designer and he just made his very first collection for the mother of the bride, special occasion event. His styling is absolutely on par with his performance of a wedding gown designer. It's been a long time since I saw such delightful outfits, fresh and full of flair and individuality. I can't wait for the first delivery.
We have some absolutely gorgeous outfits, classy clothes to fit all of these occasions and even more. Some can even be worn as Mother of the Bride but aren't over the top for the alternative occasion especially the floaty outfits from Damianou and Ann Balon. The wonderful raw silk outfits from Paule Vasseur and Condici are, well, WOW!!!!! Also worth a mention are the delightful outfits from Peter Martin. If you don't know what to wear at any special event then we will be pleased to advise and our range is so large we will almost certainly be able to help you choose something really special. Drop in and amaze yourself at the range we carry.
A word of caution: To avoid a clash of outfits it's generally better to avoid those fashions bought from high street multiples or large department stores, which of course excludes the independent retailers who take care to choose the same sort of fashions. In particular we have found that the following labels could pose a problem: Planet, Jacques Vert, Betty Barclay, Country Casuals, Autonomy, Roman, Liz Claiborne, Jasper Conran, Bianca, Feraud, Berketex, Eastex, Monsoon, Max Mara etc. August Silk, Godske, Whimsey, Lady G can be found in outlet centres available to everyone who think they are getting something exclusive. We have nothing but admiration for the quality of these labels but they are really all too available to everyone, are often the outfits chosen by the wedding guests, and to be honest the outfits we and other independents offer in the same quality bracket are generally much better priced and are certainly much more individual.
Remember that the major high street multiples, (the ones on every high street) cater for the mass market, the clone who doesn't mind being one of thousands all wearing the same fashions. If you don't want to be the same and if you really do care about keeping safe, then perhaps you should visit other independent shops if you cannot get to our own shop or don't want to deal with us at a distance.
